Daniel Savarese commented on NET-393:
-------------------------------------
sendCommandWithID being public is consistent with the original design intent
for base protocol classes. Why are you not discussing these issues on the
development mailing list first?

> Should the sendCommandWithID() methods be public?
> These allow the user to override the tag generation, or even send invalid
> tags.
> I think it would be better to reserve these for internal use.
> If a use case for them is found later, the visibility can be changed back.
> But reducing visibility breaks binary compatibility - best to start with
> minimal visibility (and mutabiliy) and relax as necessary later.
